Prednisone caused osteoporosis in my neck and back. Of course it also created a pregnant-looking belly. So I am wondering if Kevzara is better.

I’ve read that Prednisone can cause “buffalo neck” I think that’s what it’s called.
I’m all the time straightening up when I’m walking. I keep reminding myself.
Is that what you are referring to?
